E-flite turbo Timber Thrust Reversing

Here are the complete steps to set up your E-flite turbo Timber with Thrust reversing
1. Begin with the transmitter bound to the receiver.
2. Power ON the transmitter.
3. Set switch H (throttle cut) to prevent accidental motor operation.
4. Set elevator and aileron to high rate.
5. Set Flight Mode to AS3X (The menu will not open if the Flight
Mode is set to SAFE).
6. Power ON the aircraft. A signal bar appears on the transmitter
main screen when the telemetry information is being received.
7. From the main screen navigate to the last screen past the
telemetry screens, the Avian Programming menu (Avian Prog).
8. All configuration in the Avian Programming menu is done by
moving the elevator and aileron stick. Follow the on-screen
prompts to access the menu. Move the stick up or down to move
the cursor, left or right to select a value or return to the cursor,
and up or down to change a value when it is selected.
9. Set BRAKE TYPE: Reverse
10. Set BRAKEFORCE: 7
11. Set THRUST REV: Select the channel you designated for thrust
reversing in your transmitter. CH7 is the selection by default,
but do not use this default option if you are using Aux2/Ch7
for SAFE Select.
12. Select EXIT W/ SAVE to save your selections

Thank you, Robert. You just made setup a breeze. This part was the part giving me the most concern.

[@loftbuckleyrc]

Very clear and easy to follow. Did it for my new Cirrus.

[@allenpippin678]

Thanks for this video. I was able to setup reverse thrust on my plane following your video.

[@old-rcplane-phart]

THIS would explain a lot on my RV-7 avian lite 45a esc! 👍🤯

[@ItzSKYVlogs]

Whaaaaat!!!!! Dude this is crazy!! Oh man.. I would love to see you like... make a video of your picking out the plane and why, and then taking it outside and maybe saying why you picked a specific plane and setting it up for flying.. then telling us how it feels to fly it while your flying it... vs the feeling of other planes.... I don’t know.. I’m just so interested in this stuff!

[@tyesai]

Is there anyway to connect this to the throttle for reverse on an airplane and run it like the collective / throttle on a helicopter so that mid point on the throttle is essentially 0 throttle, full up is 100 fwd (like normal) but as you cross the mid point it goes into reverse proportionally so that with the throttle stick all the way down it would be 100% reverse? This would open up some interesting options for 3D aerobatics.

[@phillipwhiteministries3003]

thanks so much for this tutorial!!! i was stuck at this point!!!

[@Tallguysrc]

I was stuck myself so i figured if I was having trouble everyone else was

[@martymannisto1109]

Hi there Robert does the reverse thrust have to be on ch7 can I use ch8 instead thank you your friend Marty from Canada 🇨🇦🛩🛩

[@old-rcplane-phart]

WORKS like a champ! NOW i have reverse on my rv7! Reverse on swG! 👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Tallguysrc]

I have it on my turbo timber, RV-7, habuSS and Draco

[@vcaputo22]

I did this with my turbo and curious why is has that little high pitch sound that happens when the prop comes to a stop. You can hear it clockwise and counterclockwise. I can only think it happens due to the reverse thrust trying to stop the motor quickly so when you do hit reverse it doesn’t damage the motor?! Your thoughts?

[@AntonioL1011]

Thank you so much mannn you're awesome!! Now I have the Twin Engine AL37 Jetliner I seen a video where a guy had trust reverses but didn't explain how he got them to work. So now you came to the rescue. So I'm assuming if I follow the same instructions that it would work correct?

[@lennyz853]

I have the turbo timber evo and do you have a video on how to set up safe and ax3x using forward programming?

[@annerobinson2086]

Hi Tallguy. Will this also work when setting up a DX6 transmitter to the earlier UMX Timber Turbo?

[@AntonioL1011]

Well I know in my case id have issues ,it's just my luck. So I have a NX10 radio, and I'm not even seeing that menú. Can you tell me how I can see that ? I'm good at following instructions. Note I'm trying it on my AL37 jetliner thsnks

[@SlowFlyer85]

follow your video work great now can you add sound to that switch that says reversering did not see anything in audio modesection that showed it of did you add a sound to your switch

[@RonaldMarkovitz]

Can I do throttle reverse on my Timber Turbo Evolution with a DX6e?

[@BrianSperry-or2sm]

How do I set a channel for reverse rust? Or is it already set to channel 7?

[@D_Snapp_Garage]

Will a dx7s transmitter have the ability to do this with the avian rx?

[@phillipiacobacci1369]

Great video, but can you do a Thrust Reversing on a DX6?

[@sbansie]

Hi, great video I'm doing the research before buying the turbo Timber Evolution as a second to my trainer (newbie). Will the crow feature that allows ailerons to deflect upwards together require another channel? I'm guessing flaps 5,6, and reverse 7 so will that last 8th channel be enough to use crow? I'm trying to figure out if 8 channels are enough for everything. Thanks

[@Tallguysrc]

The crow is a mix so 8 channels is more than enough

[@sbansie]

@@Tallguysrc got it, thanks.

[@jefftedrow1096]

Any idea why the motor has a little whine to it after the programming? I just programmed thrust reversing and it's doing the same thing. Thanks for sharing and helping others!

[@Tallguysrc]

I might have a solution for you will post more when I get home.

[@martymannisto1109]

Hello again Robert my question is does the throttlehave to be off before switching throttle reverse on Marty from Canada 🇨🇦🛩🛩

[@Tallguysrc]

The setup makes nutural enter brake mode,so you as long as you go to zero throttle and hit the switch your fine.

[@AntonioL1011]

Great Question, that I'd like to know also

[@MnThs-gu2ut]

Hello love your video. Is it possible if you could do thrust reverse on a fly sky transmitter?

[@Tallguysrc]

Yes it has more to do with the esc and motor

[@paulmullemeister489]

Thanks for this great video. On my DX9 I used switch G for the reverse thrust and all works well. Question is how do I change position 2 being forward and position 1 being reverse to the other way around. Ie I would like position 0 for forward and position 1 for reverse. Thanks

[@brokawphotography1]

Paul did you need to update the firmware in the dx9 to allow you to program in the reverse? I have a Timber X and a dx9 black edition. Thanks Perry

[@tvwang]

Can you pick the “bind” switch rather than switch 7 to avoid accidentally switching to reverse thrust while flying…?

[@Tallguysrc]

You can asing it to any open switch

[@jimsimpson4385]

Does the reverse thrust have to be on ch7 can I use ch8 instead ?

[@Tallguysrc]

Jim when your in the setup screen it lets you select the channel, join my Factbook group facebook.com/tallguysrc i can post pictures and answers questions better there.

[@JinyongRC]

Is position 1 normal thrust or reverse thrust? How do I set position 1 as I want to set normal or reverse?

[@Tallguysrc]

I have position 1 as normal, and yes you can set it as you please 🙏

[@davidbohner2061]

What switch is SAFE/AS3X assigned? What switch is Throttle Reverse assigned?

[@Tallguysrc]

Safe by default is A throttle reverse can be on any unused channel

[@trentwilhelm7936]

You sure make this sound so easy........but it's not ! Following these exactly, time after time and no luck. Finally gave up.

[@diegoarpino2080]

Great video! The menu still isn’t showing up on my DX8e, which is strange because I managed to get it to work with a plane last year. Got a new plane a couple days ago and couldn’t remember how to do it. Any help appreciated, thanks

[@Tallguysrc]

I don't think that the Menu is in the DX8e only on the new NX series (I'm Checking)

[@diegoarpino2080]

@@Tallguysrc It is available, I managed to get it to work with my DX8e last year o my Viper 90mm, but i cant remember what I exactly did, lol. My SAFE is off and the rates are 100. Thanks again!

@@diegoarpino2080 Ok my friend I got it all figured out, plug in new battery fully charged, using the scroll whell turn to the right last menu is the smart esc do the throttle down and down elevator to the left and then right to enter the meno and you can program the reverse ere.

[@Tallguysrc]

from what I read Yes you can it's listed in the manual

[@kathrynsnow6073]

Is it possible to have thrust reverse on a dx9 radio?

[@Tallguysrc]

Yes you just need a way to program the esc the new nx6 8 and 10 its part of the transmitter setup.

[@Tallguysrc]

Sorry not sure if DX has the menu

[@williamlane6374]

I have a nx10 and trying to get the thrust reverse to work on my eflite f16 and it doesn't seem to want to do reverse so I don't know what I'm doing rong, even followed all the instructions

[@Tallguysrc]

Is the f16 setup with the correct esc to do that, i don't own one

[@mickydee6550]

I have the new EF F-16 80MM Thunderbird and had a similar problem until I consulted the manual. Don’t forget you have to have your elevator and aileron switches set to high rates.That solved the problem and everything went per the video after that. Also, if you have a original NX10 the software has to be updated to current software to access the Avian programming menu.

[@wash-rc]

Is this the BNF version with the reciever that came with it. I took reciever from another plane and using NX8 BUT I i dont have 7th channel assignment. I only have 6 . WHY ? How do you assign the switch to channel 7 then . WTF ?? Great Vid :)

[@Tallguysrc]

do you know how to go into forward programing?

[@Tallguysrc]

Oh sorry yes this is the bind and fly version.

[@wash-rc]

Ok, i think i worked it out. Since this reciever is from another bnf plane (extra 300) it is locked with that config. So i need to unlock. Working on it...

[@Tallguysrc]

@@wash-rc Yes and it's easy to do it just using the radio and forward programming if you need help let me know
